    Comments that agree that wind mills are nothing but a joke keep getting deleted. Insane how the media paints these pictures that no one agrees with. Deal with it. No one wants this crap in the ocean besides the people that are getting rich off them. They’re not clean energy as the ocean is filled with fiber glass now. It won’t save anyone money our electric bills will Double. I’m not seeing much of a reason at all to have these built in our oceans. Besides the obvious agenda that’s been happening. Ya know destroy anything that has given people money for the last hundred years. They think they’re going to bring the rich down and all of a sudden the poor will rise up. No one handed the Europeans that showed up on the may flower anything. They had better ideas, they were smarter and that’s why we’re here. Take it away from us and we’ll come up with another way to be on top. Stop wasting your time

    Surprising and interesting project. This has always felt a special area of the City to me and I'm glad some concern and investment is going into an anchor project here. I can remember 35 cent movies at the Capitol, watching Jaws for the first time, going to the Halloween spectaculars, meeting friends here. The neighborhood with a record/electronics/camera store, the A&P nearby, of course St. Anthony's church/grade school/high school, and all kinds of health and living and food services provided by the businesses that lived here were welcome and necessary. It's been a sad 40 years passing the closed Capitol. I hope this project thrives and re-energizes the area.
